Welcome to Woodlands Park Primary & Nursery School
Welcome to our school website. We hope you find it interesting and informative.English
This term one of the literacy units will be linked to the science topic, Circuits and Conductors. The children will read ‘The Iron Man’ by Ted Hughes, the story of a small boy who single-handedly and bravely befriends an iron giant. We will continue to focus on detailed character and setting description and the use of effective dialogue in a story.
Later on in the term, we will focus on one of Maya Angelou’s poems. ‘Still I Rise’ is a powerful poem that draws on a range of influences, including her personal background and the African American experience in the United States. Its message of liberation and survival was a consistent theme in Angelou's work.
The children will also experience a wider range of fiction and non-fiction texts in focused weekly reading lessons.
